Final four voting winding down for the Next App Star

The Windows Phone "Next App Star" contest is winding down with voting for the final four apps ending tonight at 11:59pm PST. After which voting for the championship round will take place from April 6th to 8th.

While the WPCentral app made it to the elite eight, we fell short to ProShot, who is now facing (and leading) Amazing Weather HD. On the other side of the semi-finals you will find Wikipedia leading Voice Translator.

All four are heavy weight apps but the Amazing Weather HD/ProShot winner may be the odds on favorite to win it all.

The winning developer will have their app appear in a Windows Phone TV ad. Voters will have their chance to win a Nokia Lumia 920. Winners are chosen at random from all the votes cast per day with a total of 21 Lumia 920's being eligible for giveaway.

I am pretty sure IOS / Android users will lol when they see Wikipedia in WP commercial ads. Is this the best app for WP ?
Proshot however can highlight camera for WP. Hopefully Proshot can win over Wikipedia.

There have been a host of app ideas from funny to quirky to serious ones which could actually act as a life saver. Which one do you think deserves to win the 1 million rupees cash prize? Watch the show on NDTV Profit, on April 06, at 8:00 PM

Pro-Shot should win, the app which reveals the true worth of phone should win. I am surprised how wikipedia is winning against translator. Wikipedia is just a good app with nice presentation otherwise it is not exploiting real features of phone.

Proshot will definitely win. It'll interest a lot of potential buyers to see such a cool app on Windows Phone that exists nowhere else.
Wikipedia, while excellent, is just another app for searching an encyclopedia.

Please vote for ProShot :) It would serve well in a commercial to highlight some of the best parts of Windows Phone, namely the camera. Many people buy phones because of their cameras, so I think this could be a great push for the platform!

Plus, if ProShot wins, I'll definitely have Microsoft's attention. With their help, I can take this app to a whole new level ;)

I also voted for it although I won't buy it nor do I find it perfect. As to not buying it I hope you'll do a couple of days of offering it for free when you win it and about the "not perfect": I miss the option to insert time stamps into my photos as I can on my DSLRs or other real cameras. I need this for the motor vehicle pictures I frequently take.

If you need this feature in the app so bad then why won't you support the developer by throwing him the change that he ask for to buy the app? Help him out please so that he can bring you the features that you need. BUY THE APP OR I'M COMING FOR YOU!!! LOL!

Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit! Vote for Proshit!

Lol.. I call it Proshit because the app is some Professional Shit!!! I want everyone to vote for it because the developer really supports the app with passion, and it shows. Proshot is one of the best apps on the platform and deserves to win the competition.
Ignore Snarkysnickerdoodle,, I guess he has something against me.. Poor little helpless me.. Lol

I'm cheap so i never, ever buy apps (free only). Proshot has so many features and constantly getting updated that I'm thinking about buying it. I'll actually buying it tonight just to prove a point. :)

I mean it in a good way!! But, I can see how it can be perceived in a negative way.. Actually Proshot is one of my favorite apps! But, you're right I am not capable of developing a app.. I just don't understand why you guys think I hate it so much if everytime I say to vote for it.. Stop thinking so negatively..

Well, then you're a dumb ass because nobody here means for it to be negative, and nobody here hates the app.. You're on your own buddy... FYI it means "Professional Shit" which is a compliment.,, you know like "Its tha shit"??? You're a sad and negative dude man. Look at the glass half full for now on! Bite a hard one feller!! LOL!!

We wanted to vote for WPC but we thought that some of the other apps would appeal to a larger audience. Seeing that there's a potential commercial involved us diehard WP fans would like to use this opportunity to show a very useful application that is exclusive to WP.. In other words.. Vote for Proshit!

Yeah, too bad it isn't in it yet. While it might not be the best app, it sure is the best of the list. Nice presentation, nice animations, up2date, lots of wp8 features and more.
I don't get why the Translator, Proshop and Amazing Weather made it to the list at all. The first two don't feel like "must have" apps to me and the Weather Flow beats Amazing Weather any day of the week.
I also wonder why Skype, theFacebook, Metrotube, Navigon, various Nokia apps like Nokia Drive and other apps aren't on the list and where are the cool games?
From those apps that are left i don't really recommend any of them but it doesn't really seem to matter anyways. I hope WPCentral is gonna do a similar poll soon (or perhaps do a "best app of the last quarter" poll), so we get some proper choices.

I come from Arlington, Texas.. Its cool because close to here is one of MS corporate offices. And a Nokia corporate office is right next door. They had a cool WP event there about a year ago. From my understanding some of the LTE development for the L900 was done here.. Dude, I have so much official WP gear from MS its a shame.. What about you? Where are you from??

Voted for you but i doubt its going to matter, Even the massive fanbase of WPcentral failed in front of Proshot, i doubt they are playing the system or some other trick, you can easily say that Proshot will win the finals too.

Did you use both Apps? I have used both and voted for Proshot!! Awesome stuff that you can do with it. Shutter open for 4 seconds on a mobile phones. I never thought I would get that on a mobile phone. and Its a killer feature when combined with Lumia 920's OIS.

Can I ask what you want on TV for Windows Phone? Do you really want a weather app to be headlining it? I definitely would prefer an advanced camera app over that, it's far more interesting as a TV spot and isn't as commoditised as weather.

Cannot install amazing weather hd on my lumia 820 in the netherlands. Its saying that i have wrong device, or software version (i have the latest) or country not supported. I see other european countries so why not the netherlands?
